Thank you very much for those valve stem measurements- extremely helpful!
As it turned out, my son located 2 brand new 1/4" valves for a Tec HS40 that I did not know we even had
If anybody needs to know:
Exhaust = .242"
Intake = .246
I wonder if the exhaust valve stems are typically slightly smaller diameter to allow for expansion due to heat? Can anybody confirm this?
Sooooo, All that I (now) need are the measurements for the larger 5/16" Briggs and Tecumseh (brand new)valve stems.
I did purchase both of the Briggs Plug Gauge tools for checking valve guides for the 1/4" (#19122) and 5/16" (# 19151) valves and am HOPING they will work for the Tecumseh equivalents, hence, in need of the measurements.
Regards,
Michael
